Life is indeed a box of chocolates; lots of times there are nuts on it.

I am a technical writer (with loads of non-technical writer work, which i enjoy btw) for the software development leg of a US-based 'know more' company. When not in my office desk, I am lurking around shopping malls and online stores looking for the best portable Ebook reader, which by the way is still unavailable in the Philippines. And no, I don't miss smoking. No, I don't like Chocolates. No, I am not religious. Yes, I love coffee, nothing Frappe please.

sophia

Sunday, December 21, 2008

I wrote this c. 2003.
—————————————–

Sophia entered the room

and his world, a nebular eruption

But she doesn’t notice this

because hers is a pedestal

of fame and family

Yet he still dreams of Sophia

in an ice-grounded lame surface

on the other side of her island of folly

She lives in silence, apart from his

Existence

And sophia, lost

in an unreachable

ocean of visualization

 

He lives, and smells the fresh

fragrance of the perfume

            she doesn’t wear

Maybe it’s under his nose;

He sees her kneeling in front of him

 

At the same time,

Sophia is staring at him from a distance

far away

Far from delusional thoughts:

He is patting the dog lying at his feet

in a place where once upon a time

He held her hand…

 

No pool of oblivion

Just touch of hand

His feet feeling a patch

of earth

of stones and sand;

Of only
stones
and sand

It’s nice to see you still TRY to write as much as you can. I’ve long given up on it. Work seems to have muddied up all my bright thoughts and ideas up there.

Hope you still remember me though ;p
